Dinesh,

With the required disclaimer that I'm not a lawyer, and I don't play one on TV, I believe that the changes proposed to Trove in [1] do not make sense. I am not, I do not believe, competent to answer the question of whether or not the earlier changes to cinderclient or ironic must be reverted.
